Pizza Sloppy Joes

Pizza Sloppy Joes with all your favorite pepperoni pizza flavors and a couple of vegetables your kids won’t even notice.

Pizza Sloppy Joes take the classic sloppy joes up a notch with the addition of marinara sauce instead of the classic tomato paste and awesome pizza topping mix-ins. Cheesy, sloppy, pizza sloppy goodness! You can adjust these as you’d like to.

We have been enjoying these Pizza Sloppy Joes for a couple of months now. We also made a Pepperoni Pizza Hamburger Helper. The flavors of the ground beef, marinara sauce and pizza toppings come together so well you’ll see the kids asking for more helpings.

Want to make these Pizza Sloppy Joes into a slow cooker recipe?

Add the ingredients (minus the cheese and buns) to the slow cooker and cook on low for 4 hours.

Use half the amount of beef broth.

If the sauce is not thick add in another 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon room temperature water. Cook for an additional 30 minutes on low.

Add the cheese and stir once you’re ready to serve.

Looking for more sandwiches?

OH! And my favorite thing about this recipe?! If you have any left over (which I would doubt, but hey you never know), you can use the leftovers to make the most epic grilled cheese sandwiches EVER. Just use the method found in my Ground Philly Cheesesteak Grilled Cheese and you’ll be in heaven!

Tools Used in the making of these Pizza Sloppy Joes:Cast Iron Skillet: This is my most used pan in my kitchen, heavy, keeps heat well and gives the BEST sear ever.Chef’s Knife: This knife is one of the three most used tools in my kitchen (tongs and my pig tail flipper are the other two). I love it, I’ve had it for almost 10 years and it is as sharp today as the day I got it. (left column, second from the top). Mind you I love it this much even though I have a ridiculously expense knife set as well.
